Fresh Clams … Yum!
In yesterday’s post (“Bears on the Beach”), I spoke of the clamming activities that the brown bears of Hallo Bay (Alaska) participate in, during low tides. Today’s post includes a couple of images of brown bears as they clammed the shores of Hallo Bay: Watching a brown bear locate and dig up the razor clams […]

Bears on the Beach
From my Alaska travels, here are a couple of images of Brown Bears (Ursus arctos) cruising the beaches of Hallo Bay: Why do they travel on the beaches?

Snorkeling, Anyone?
During my Hallo Bay photo trip, I found several brown bears “snorkeling”, the term used to describe a bear with their head underwater, looking for fish swimming in the creek. This was not a new behavior for me to see; every time I’ve been to Hallo Bay in the fall salmon runs, there have always […]

“Do You Ever Get Close?”
You Bet!” This is a question I’m frequently asked when people either see some of my bear images or learn that I travel to Alaska to photograph the coastal brown bears (Ursus arctos). Here are a few images of such close proximity (these are uncropped images, except for the second one that has been […]
